q. u. 4 Il. RAILROAD.
Prospects M.St Encouraging for its
Early 'A6tssffuetion.

Our readers may not be prepared for
such encouraging news, "all OF sud
den," but we can assure them that the
| prospects for the Cincinnati, Huntsville
< Birmingham r. r. are not only as en-
couraging as possible, but that every
thing points to the early construction OF
the road.
Judge Richardson, Maj. Sloss and VIM.
f. Baldridge, the committee who visited
Birmingham in the interest of this road,
returned yesterday and report that they
had conference with Mr.. FL. f. DeBard-
ele.ben and other leading capitalists OF
that city, and that their conference was
altogether satisfactory and the outlook
un mistakably points to the early build
irtg OF the road between Birmingham
and Huntsville. OF the conference in
birmingham and it's work, the following
rs the report given by the Age OF yester-
day:
One OF the most important enterprises,
yet started in our midst was fully devel
oped yesterday. There have been ru-
mors and reports OF proposed railroad
1 to run from the new town of Bessemer
! by Birmingham to and into Murphree's
Valley. To-day it is an accomplished fact.
A number OF gentlemen composed
chiefly Of those interested in Bessemer
] City, and the DeBardeleben Coal < Iron
Co met yesterday morning at the office
of the latter company.
After canvassing the subject, subscrip-
tons were called for, and in few mo.
ments all the money necessary to carry
4 out the enterprise was subscribed. Steps
We're taken to procure charter from the
secretary of state and effect a formal or.
ganization of the company. But as the
subscribers desired that no time should
beeest temporary organization was eff
feeted with Mr. II. f. DeBardeleben as
president and Messrs. David Roberts. w.
j. Inkard, NJ. +. Lopez, NJ. Adler. Au
| glstine 0. Smythe. as an executive com
rnittee. An instalment on the subscrip<
,tions was ordered payable at once.
Work will be pushed vigorously and
Immediately. In fact the engineers are
now at work locating the line, and con
macts for building the road will be let
oat at once.
The importance OF this road cannot be
over estimated Starting from Bessemer
as an initial point, it will pass by the
Woodward furnaces, the Pratt mines
with their four faces, by the Thomas Iron
CoDapany's new furnace plant, through
n o9th Birmingham, then into the new
territory OF Murphrees Valley towards
the Tennessee river
Murphree's Valley, as is known, is not
only most fertile country, prosperous
in its agricultural pursuite, but it is also
rich in both coal ard iron deposits. In
fact, in it are many of the richest coal
beds and ore banks to be found in Ala
bama.
In addition, therefore, to the carrying
and passenger traffic between Birming
ham Bessemer and intermediate points,
this road will open this new and hither-
to undeyeloped territory. Its effect up
on Bessemer City will be most marked.
1t will do more to further insure the
already certain prosperity oE that town
than any other one enterprise that could
be imagined.
The promoters OF this enterprise show
their faith both in it and in Bessemer by
making Bessemer the starting point fof
their railroad.

Gadsden Times and News
The quickest. easiest and most efec-

This Will do it and no mistake. There
are too many sensible reading people
now who are careful as to how they
spend their money, and they are On
the lookout for bargains; and if they do
not see them offered in their own bone
paper, they turn to the paper from some
contiguous point, see what they want adj
vertised and go and seek it. This is hu-

They hope for of- flee and they expect to manipulate the political plunder to their own interest. But they will find they are not strong enough to manipulate the people in their interest, and should Arizona enter into siateho pd, the coterie of political char la;sns who are now agitating the sub lect, will never be heard of.

ova sAaap,no WORKS

The starting up, to-day. by E. St. Q.

 works, it is hoped and believed, will
 mark new era in the mining industry
 of this section of Arizona. The build
 ing is fifty feet square. exclusive of the boiler room, and very conveniently ar ranged for handling ores. easily and economically. The machinery is of the very latest and most improved patterns. the engine being Westinghouse Auto matic, of twenty-five horse power. The rock is first crushed by a Blake Dodge tie bolt, giant, rock breaker, when it is passed to set of Cornish rollers and thence through a sample grinder, when it is ready for sampling. The capacity of the works is s tons per day of twenty-four hours and the pros pee. is good at present to keep them run ming day and night for some time come. There are at present over three hundred tons of ore at the works ready for sam bling. while a large number of miners have been holding their ore al the mines. awaiting the stlting of the works. Mir. Cockburn glves notice that he is now fully prepared to receive, sample and purchase ore. and prompt attention will be given to all brought in.

MARRIAGE RECORDS

The lamen,ahe state ot uncertainty at presen, surrounding the above subject in this territory was strikingly exempli- fed to-day by the application of mia ister 10 file 10. record with the probate judge TWO certificates of marriage cere- monies recently performed by him. ln- stead of fling and recording the same. as heretofore, wl,h the county recorder.
 The occurrence caused Probate Judge ONeill to make a thorough examination of all laws al present in force touching the mater. and the result ot hts labors we give below. as tersely as possible, and all persons iaierested may avoid much trouble and annoyance by carefully ob- serving them. Judge O'Neills conolu- sions are as follows:
 Under section s, chapter XXX, of the Compiled Laws Fu.t, that every person solemnizins A marriage must keep rscord of the same secohd, that he must, within three mouths, transmit a certificate of such marriage 10 the IL, corder oi the county in which the mar riage took place, under spenslly of $Ioo and costs third, that the recorder shall record all such certificates in a book 10 b, kept for that purpose, witbin one mouth after receiving the same. and shall be allowed fee of $a for entering the same. The certificate herein referred to IS of the ordinary form usually given by ministers.
 Under section 9, of the Edmunds- Tucker an,i-polygamy sc'. approved Feb ruary, 1881, the law requires First-- 1That every ceremony of marriage. or in the nature of marriage ceremony, of any kind, m any of the territories of the United States. shall be certified by a certificate stating the fact and nature of such ceremony. the full names of each of the parties concerned. and the fuil name of every officer, priest and person, by whatever style or designation called or known, in any way taking part in ,he performance Of such ceremony, which certificate must be drawn up and siened by the parties tJ such ceremony and by every ofhcer, pnest and person taking part n the periosmsnce of the cere- mony second, that such certificate shall be by the officer, priest or other person solemnlzing such marriage, filed n ,he office of the probate court or. if there he none, then m the court having probate powers In the county or district in winch such ceremony shall take place. for record, and the same shall be immedl- ately recorded; third, any person who shall wIiltuily violate any Of the forego- ing provisions shall be deemed guilty of 3 misdemeanor, and shall, on convic- ten. be punished by a fine of not more .han $I,ooo, or by impTisonmen, not longer than two years, or by beth of such punishmen,s, in the discretion of he count
 As wiilbe seen by an inspection of both avs ii will pay every person to comply ,trc,ly with each, and that not to do % subjects Ihe offender 10 heavy penaltirs. Another fact that will he observed Is hat while the documen, filed with the county recorder IS no more than t':e lsual marriage certificate that filed with the probate judge IS intended to be ] complete history of the marriage cere- nony aitcsted by the signature of all 'ersons participating in it.
